Watching Woodward last 2 days is like imagining my idol Mike Schmidt facing live pitching again. Perfection gained once is rarely repeated.

I’m just hoping Woodward has the biggest ego ever, and all the piling on incites him to do something of value.

Eric B, what an a**, he harassed Breitbart for years - it was pathetic.

They warned him that he would regret it. Now the character assassination assault is on!

Insult tactics and threats to silence any dissent of those who aren't going with the WH regurgitated talking points. Deviate from Obama's script and you become an Alinsky tactic target. All aimed at what should be a 'Free Press' in the United States of America.

First Amendment to the United States Constitution

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

Congress made no law so they're good there. But the press is going to voluntarily carry most of the water on Woodward's destruction. Dollars to donuts Chrissie Matthews denounces him in some way within the next ten days.

Breitbart’s passing was one year ago this Friday.

Mr. Woodward is being put through the Chicago machine Alinsky spin cycle right now.

In Memorium Mr. B.:

“The Vetting, Part I: Barack’s Love Song To Alinsky”

Prior to his passing, Andrew Breitbart said that the mission of the Breitbart empire was to exemplify the free and fearless press that our Constitution protects—but which, increasingly, the mainstream media denies us.

“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” – “Who guards the guardians?” Andrew saw himself in that role—as a guardian protecting Americans from the left’s “objective” loyal scribes.

Why the fuss???
Woodward is just another in a long line of allies-turned-enemies of the Obamunist state.

An example must be made of him, to keep the other media-types in line. All hail the Messiah, or else.

But the precedent runs through all the branches. Or it should anyway.

I believe the law is what it says. Or do you think it's all just open to semantic interpretation? What law was broken here?

IMO that isn't the point or the issue here at all.

That wasn't what I was getting at. I'm talking about standards, morality and principle here. Using the example of the 1st Amendment of what is right and should be exemplified.

And Obama’s using the bully pulpit in an attempt to intimidate a member of the press. But when did he ever care about principle?

Never AFAIK. So, why would you have any expectation that he/they would display standards, morality and principles? When 0bamugabe threw his pastor of 20 years under the bus I realized he was the antithesis of those things. Everything he has done since then has been nothing more than a rubber stamp of that opinion.

Love and miss you, Breitbart. I am so grateful for the Breitbart press. WE THE PEOPLE are Breitbart.

I feel the same way. I love and miss Breitbart. I had so much respect for him. We needed him. We now have to be him. It’s hard to be Breitbart.

If you think about it, it's been damn hard to be everything that we must be in this war that we're fighting. But we do it, like our forfathers, our grandfathers and fathers in wars past..they bit the bullet and got the job done. We must keep our goals in mind and make sure that the sacrifices of those brave soldiers in wars past, who gave their lives in the defense of the Constitution, our liberty and freedom, were not in vain.
